I'd love a journo to ask:
1. When was the protocol put in place?

This government consistently acts in a manner suggesting it KNOWS what it is doing is either the wrong thing to do or wildly unpopular, which is why it schedules press releases in the hope that their latest travesty will fly under the radar.
